Advanced Adult Leadership Training
Wood Badge is Scouting’s premier training course and leadership experience designed for all Cub Scout, Scouts BSA, and Venturing leaders as well as Council and District leaders and Scouting professionals. The founder of Scouting, Lord Baden-Powell, originally designed it so that Scouters could learn, in as practical a way possible, the skills and methods of Scouting. The Wood Badge course focuses on strengthening every volunteer’s ability to work with and lead groups of youth and adults.
